Nonna Tata at 1400 West Magnolia Avenue is an intimate Northern Italian trattoria in Fort Worth's Near Southside. Owner-chef Donatella Trotti prepares a frequently changing menu that may include handmade pasta, risotto, veal, gnocchi, and house-made desserts. The restaurant's small dining room and personal cooking style create an experience closer to a neighborhood trattoria than a large formal restaurant. Nonna Tata follows a walk-in format, accepts cash or check, and allows guests to bring wine. Best for regional Italian cooking and a distinctive dinner on Magnolia Avenue.
